Fuck Bushnuts, he is the opposite of a resource.
The 2.0 is an okay swap, but if you are going thru the trouble, do something useful. My favorites are: RB26, 6g74, 2.17
Remember that you won't have the DSM tranny holding you back.
LS1 would be my choice if you are going to swap. If you're gonna go, go big! Won't weigh much more than the 2.6l since it is all aluminum.

Or just buy a Camaro since the whole car would probably be half the price of a swap and can't weight a whole lot more.

Doesnt the widebody 2.4 bolt up to the stock tranny on these? Thats what I was planning on mine, but never got to it, and probably never will. Allan, buy mine! :)

Yes it does. The 2.4 will break the tranny though, they arn't made for high horsepower. There really isn't much reason to get rid of the G54B. Not to replace it with something like the 4g64 anyway.

Conquests are for pussies. get a man's car, a CAMARO! It already has a v8!
I'll sell you my car plus most of what you need to convert to MPI for $5995. I'll sell you a big honkin' turbo if you want that too. 569whp and 600 wtq on a setup very similar to mine. :)
Comes with several extra parts like springs, and random things I find in my garage that can fit in the trunk.

The starion is a good 500 lbs lighter. Flat rear window so plexi is easy, seats weigh like 90 lbs each, so it is easy to lose more weight.
Why is a 2.17l swap cool, but a LS1 is sacriledge?

In the mitsu family. That's all.
If money wasn't an issue, and I really really wanted a sweet quest, I'd put a 1UZFE (?) toyota v8 in and turbo it.
